I too have wonderful memories of both of my grandmothers' kitchens, they were always such happy places. I own the same Jewel Tea ball jug, in fact I have a collection of 20 ball jugs, they were all made by the Hall China Company in the 1930's to late 1950's.

My maternal grandmother spoiled us with her homemade macaroni and cheese - we don't settle for the Kraft blue box. My children have never had the Kraft version. :) I like your grandmother's dishes. Isn't it great to use dishes that have been a part of many family meals through your lifetime? The dishes evoke memories and a connection to the past.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-19098423849244596402012-05-12T18:32:48.853-04:002012-05-12T18:32:48.853-04:00What evocative memories you have recounted - thank...What evocative memories you have recounted - thank you.Brett Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07706734864792449845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-5996984293610405652012-05-12T14:52:21.914-04:002012-05-12T14:52:21.914-04:00That scenario can go one of two ways: lots of sis...That scenario can go one of two ways: lots of sisterly fun OR a recipe for disaster!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863357756727783017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-84364601305809570162012-05-12T14:44:39.164-04:002012-05-12T14:44:39.164-04:00Definitely room for only 1 person between the coun...Definitely room for only 1 person between the counter and table!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17863357756727783017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-83749232151794034522012-05-12T10:55:03.796-04:002012-05-12T10:55:03.796-04:00Your kitchen-related memories have triggered a few...Your kitchen-related memories have triggered a few memories of my own too, especially of my grandmother and her sister in the kitchen together....Sheila @ A Postcard a Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140046386364588303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7429612700924625855.post-65683632741822441762012-05-12T10:06:48.541-04:002012-05-12T10:06:48.541-04:00That's a cute picture of you and the kitchen. ...That's a cute picture of you and the kitchen.
